VIM. Holt, the fellow who
punched cows for grub" down on
Bruneau, was a visitor to Albion
this week. He is a jolly good fel-
low, however, and makes times
lively with the boys.
Jas. M. Pierce, the Clear Greek
cattle man, was in Albion few
days this week. Jim has the rep
utation of being one Of the best
posted cattle men in Idaho. He
reports cattle on the range rather
thin; but that they seem to have
more strength than cattle generally
do at this time of year. This, he
says, is the worst month in the year
on stock. He thinks great loss
can be prevented by cattle men
getting their stock on the hills
where they can get good dry grass.
The pasture in the valleys is com
pletely eaten out.

r. e. Strahorn and E. II. Hessy,
surveyor Of Ada county, arrived
this morning, to lay off an addi-
tional IA blocks to the townsite.
One row of blocks will be surveyed
south of the depot.
Last Monday night while Section
Foreman Brady and party were in
specting the road, large lynx was
discovered at the bridge one mile
east of town. The car was stopped
and Mr.. Brady drew bead on the
animal with his sixshooter. The
second shot took effect in one of the
forelegs, and the beast pitched bat
tie. He came very near making a
meal of Mr.. Brady's dog before a
final shot in vital part dispatched
him. The animal measured six
feet eight inches. 1t was only 81
feet from the track when killed.
Mr.. Brady has the skin, and will
have it tanned and made into a
robe.
A party of several gentlemen
visited the big cave cast of town
last Sunday. They were provided
with ropes, lanterns, etc, and ex-
plored the cavern some 300 or 400
feet in length by 100 in width.
They went particularly in quest of
wild animals, which make the place
rendezvous during the stormy
weather of winter. Evidence OF
innumerable animals of many var
ieties were visible on every hand,
but the wary beasts skunk into the
crevices or trotted down into the
bowels cf the earth as the intrud-
ers approached. No game was
bagged. Wild cats and lynx ran

ELECTRICAL SEARCH FOR BULLETS
New York Sun.


When President Garfield was dy-
ing at Elberon, and the attending
surgeons were locating the fatal bul-
let in spots clear away from where,
after death, it was discovered, an.
electrical apparatus was construct
ed by Prof Bell for the purpose Of
finding the bit of lead. The failure
was ridiculed, much to the chagrin
of Bell and the doctors. The dis
covery has since been made that
Garfield lay on metallic mattress,
which frustrated the electricity.
Now a machine has been construct
ed and tested. The machine con-
sists of a battery coils, etc, but
principally of a thin steel probe
connected with the wires in man
ner invented by Bell. The surface
Of the patient over an imbeded bull
let was cocained, so as to deprive it
of all feeling. Then the probe was
thrust in. AS the end Of the steel
came within six inches of the bull
let, the surgeon with his car to a
telephone cup heard humming
sound, which grew louder as the
metal was approached. The flesh
was iabbed number of times, and
the trial was regarded as success
Later a war veteran submitted to q
search for bullet that had entered
his chest and remained somewhere
in him for twenty years. The needle
hummed its way to the leads hid
ing place and it was removed. DR..
John H. Girdner, who operated the
instrument, said that its use would
have saved Garfeld's life in all
probability.

Boise Statesman.

Ed. Uhriaub, while suffering from
a combination of ills, on Monday
night, sought temporary relief in a
small dose of morphine. He either
did not know the strength Of the
dangerous drug, or made a mis-
take, for he was soon afterwards
discovered in an alarming condi-
ton, and his friends called in a
physician. Uhriaub was then un-
consious. The physician promptly
relieved his patient by the aid of a
stomach hpump, and restored him to
consciousness after considerable
effort. 1t is reported that after be-
ing restored to his senses Uhriaub
regretted the efforts of his physician
and said that he would have pre-
ferred sleeping himself into a state
where the weary and heavy laden
are supposed to be at rest. How
ever that may be, he is now getting
along all right, and will probably
be out in a few days.

grant car and was taken with his
children into the first-class coach.
Here he annoyed the passengers
by showing his ticket and asking
questions and complaining that he
was being followed by enemies.
Near Old's Ferry he went out and
climbed from the platform onto the
emigrant car and ran over it, then
over the baggage and-mail cars and
jumping onto the tender, covered
Engineer Hank Deland and Fire
man Pat Madden with a revolver
and commanded them to go faster.
Hank Deland supposed it was an
attempted train robbery and put on
more steam. AS soon as Riley was
missed, Conductor Rich and
brakeman went after him. Sup
posing he had jumped off, the bell
cord was pulled, but as the man
stood with cooked revolver order
ing him 10 go ahead, Hank did not
dare to stop the train. The con-
ductor finding that the train was
not going to stop, turned on the air
and soon brought it to slow speed.
Hank and Pat explained to Riley
that the conductor was stopping
the train, when he jumped off and
took to the hills, and not until then
did the engineer and fireman knew
that they had been dealing with an
insane man. AS the train was
several hours hours late and only Il
few miles from Huntington it went
on there, where the children were
cared for. Riley was recaptured
and with his children-three boys
and two girls-taken to Portland.
He was adjudged insane and sent
to an asylum. He is Al years old.
and his insanity was caused by the
death of his wife.

A shooting scrape occurred at
Ontario last Monday night in which
Anthony Low killed Henry Khudie.
Low is the foreman of band of
sheep belonging to Vim. Jones.
Khudie was employed as herder for
the band, but about a month since
was discharged, and he no doubt
entertained no good feeling for Low,
thinking he was instrumental in
bringing about the discharge.
They both visited Ontario the same
day and met in Williams saloon
Low offered to treat Khudie, but
but the latter refused and COM
menced to abuse and make ugly
demonstration toward Low, indi-
eating that he had a weapon in his
pocket. Low drew a pistol and
fired into the ceiling to frighten his
antagonist away. The explosion
put out all the lights in the build
ing, and Low, fearing Khudie-who
was approaching him-had a knife
fred again, the ball entering the
groin of the latter on the left side
and ranging through the abdominal
cavity and coming out at the right
side. Low gave himself up to the
officers, and remains at Ontario
awaiting the decision of the cor
oner's jury.
The train hands on the west
bound passenger last Saturday had
quite an exciting experience. On
the train was man named VIM. j.

having died recently. After leav-
ing Pocatello he became trouble

The Asylum directors are famous
on tales of early Indian fights and
struggles. Still it is rather unkind
on the part of our worthy hotel

The Rock Springs coal company
is making desperate efforts to stop
the pilfering of their coal in the
various towns along the Short Line,
One old man and two little boys
were taken from Shoshone last week
and lodged in the Jail at Haley for
this offense. The boys were not
over twelve years of age, and their
mother accompanied them. 1t
seems to us that this is pressing
the matter a little too far. The
coal company might look for larger
game.

fortunate accident that happened

right hip by some of his horses.
The blow was a glancing one and
as ill luck would have it, struck
the still tender wound of former
kick and tore out the large muscle
below the hip bone. Burt Pierce
and Charley Woods carried the
unfortunate man to Mr.. Woods
house and summoned medical aid
with all possible speed. The suff-
erer is now at his own home and
reported to be doing well.

Col. NJ. R. Slater, special agent of the Interior Department, returr.- ed yesterday from Gila Bend. Col. Slater, referring to the Papago h. dian Preservation down there em- braced in township 5, south range 3 west, ,s.says..it ought to be abolish ed and thrown open to settlement, as there are but three Indian fami- lies residing on the reservation and they are not cultivating the ground. The land is excellent for agricul- ture. There are twenty-three thou- sand acres contained in the reser- vations that is withheld for. settle ment, which Col. Slater thinks will be returned to the public domain as soon as the facts arc made known at the land oficessin Washington, and he proposes to make a strong recommendation to this end.-Star.

Gambling in '49.. in San Francisco,

There was French woman who played the violin, receiving $100 a
 day therefor; and as women were
 so scarce ill those days, whenever
 sEe left the saloon to go:out on the street every:F saloont around the
 square was emptied to get a look at
 her. In these saloons there were
 piles of gold, both in coin and in
 sacks of gold dust, that would put some of our commercial banks of the present day to the blush, and long tables that had their croupiers ready to. rake insor pay out as fast as the cards were turned off. l have often watched some novice who was putting down his first ventures at play. On one occasion I saw at the same table two clergymen shove their coin under another mans arm on the table. I knew them both, and know>.of what I speak-we are all mcrtals after all. '.s' Among other noted. players was judge at that time, who made it a point every evening to go around from place to place and make high play. Upon entering with his attendant, who carried the sack, he would first sit down at a table and bar off every other player; then set his time of play at limit, say twenty minutes or half an hour. the stake, from ten thousand to twenty thousand dol lars, with the bank. Meantime to keep the crowd that would be in at the time, which would number from three hundred up to near one thou sand, he always asked them all to take drink, which meant twenty five cents head for the bar; and if he won he paid for the drinks, if he lost, the bank had them to pay for.-W.

Difference in Price of Beef.

The statement that cattle can no longer be raised with any profit be- cause of the unprecedentedly low prices at which they must be sold is 9 surprising one, considering the fact that consumers are paying as much for beef as they did when the cattle-raising industry was the most profitable one in the country. If the supply is so much larger than the demand that cattle cannot be disposed of at rates which will justify sending them to. market, then surely there is no good reason why the butchers should continue to exact the high prices that pre- vailed years ago, when they were obliged to pay two or three times as much as they now do for their stock.-Globe-Democrat.

The Soldiers Sense of Duty.

There is always a feeling of dread in view of an approaching field o1 blood. It takes but bullet to kill you. The thought of the fall of a eomrade is not happy one. Even the flowing blood of your country's foe has no attraction. The distinc- ton, the glory, the reward-they are no compensation. What spirit, then, animates an officer in such a contest? Well, however men may cavil, 1t is mainly a sense of duty. It is the feeling of the policemen on his beat; the sentinel at the prison door; the juryman before his final verdict; the judge in de- livering his charge; the father at a night robbery, guarding wife and child, or in the executive ponder ing a long petition whose last word sends a mortal man beyond the gates.-Gen.

An Adirondack Guides Ideas.

Over on Racquette Lake, says a letter to the New York Tribune, is a handsome camp owned and in habited each summer by a we'll known citizen of Troy. His name is J. N. Mulford, and he is a minis ter of the gospel. His wife is great ly interested in the welfare of the guides and natives of the region, and last fall she presented an old guide, who is known as one of the oldest characters of that region with neat copy of the bible. He was much pleased, and set to work reading it. Having little to do du- ring the winter months, he kept on reading, and this spring, when ask ed how he liked the book, he re- piled: "Well, I've got pretty we'll through now, and I like it. Some of them stories is mighty interest in. That one about Jonah and the whale took me. If it had been a lake trout instead of a whale I could have kep' on my feet all the time. It sounds as if Jonah had been drinkin' a little when he wrote that story, but it may be all right. I never seed a whale, and I am willin' to take Jonah's word for it. But when you come to that Samson and the fox story, 1 can see them around woods myself. Samson can't give me no points on foxes. I've hunted them critters nigh onto 39 years, and 1 tell you when Sam son gets off a yarn like that he's a blamed old liar"

The Diet of Strong Men.

The Roman soldiers, who built such wonderful roads and carried g weight of armor and luggage that would crush the average f1rm-hand, lived on coarse brown bread and sour wine. They were temperate in diet and9. regularE' and.%constant in exercise. The Spanish peasant works every day andss..dances half the night, yet eats. only. his black bread, onion and watermelon. The Smyrna porter eats only a little fruit and..some..o ..olives,syetlhe walks off with his load of 100 pounds. The coolie, fed on rice, is more ac- tive ard can endure more than the negro fed on fat meat. The heavy work of the world is not done by men who eat the''greatest.'quantity Moderation in diet seems to be the prerequisite of endurance.-Scien- tific American.
